C
I had a friend named 

Ramblin' Bob, 

who used to steal 

gamble and rob

He 
C
thought he was the 

smartest guy in 
F
town

But 
F
I found out last 

Monday, 

Bob got locked up 

Sunday

They've 
D
got him in the 

jailhouse way down 
G
town

	He's in the jailhouse 
C

Bob liked to play his 

poker, 

pinochle, whist and 

euchre

But 
C
shooting dice 

was his greatest 
F
game

 
F
Bob got throwed in 

jail, with no 

one to go his 

bail

The 
D
judge said he re

fused to pay a 
G
fine

C
I went out last 

Tuesday 

met me a gal named 

Susie

C
Said I was the 

swellest guy a
F
round

We 
F
started to spend my 

money. She 

started to call me 

honey.

We 
D
took in every 

cabaret in 
G
town

	We're in the jailhouse 
C
now. 

We're in the jailhouse 
F
now.

	I 
G
told the judge right 

to his face, 

I don’t like to 

see this place

C
now
